Introduces a few Starlark macros for running the new Bazel
CLDR generation tool. Wires up the new tool so that locales
are generated properly. Also updates the existing
`closure-locale` file to match the new output generated by the Bazel tool.
This commit also re-adds a few locale files that aren't
generated by CLDR 37, but have been accidentally left in
the repository as the Gulp script never removed old locales
from previous CLDR versions. This problem is solved with the
Bazel generation of locale files, but for now we re-add these
old CLDR 33 locale files to not break developers relying on these
(even though the locale data indicies are incorrect; but there might
be users accessing the data directly)

This is a pre-refactor commit allowing us to move
the CLDR locale generation to Bazel where files would
no longer be checked-in, except for the `closure-locale`
file that is synced into Google3.

The `NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA` schema can be used to ignore errors related to unknown elements or properties, but since it suppresses these errors it may also hide real problems in a template. This commit updates the `NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA` docs to mention that.

When a `trackBy` function is used that accepts a supertype of the iterated
array's type, the loop variable would undesirably be inferred as the supertype
instead of the array's item type. This commit adds an inferred type parameter

With this change we add a migration to replace the deprecated shadow-piercing selector from `/deep/` with deprecated but recommended `::ng-deep`.
The main motivation for this change is that the CSS optimizer CSSNano which is used by the Angular CLI no longer supports this non standard selector and causes build time errors due to the selector being minified incorrectly. However, CSSNano does support the recommended deprecated `::ng-deep` selector.

We skip event listeners on non-element host nodes (e.g. `ng-container` or `ng-element`), because they don't map to a DOM node so there's nothing to bind the event to. The problem is that this also prevents listeners bound to global targets from being bound.
These changes add an extra condition to allow for the event to be bound if it has a custom event target resolver.

The JIT compiler has a mapping from component to the owning NgModule
and tracks whether a certain NgModule class has been verified; these
maps causes any JIT compiled component and NgModule to be retained even

components and NgModules that are no longer referenced elsewhere.

When there are multiple attributes that are marked for i18n translation,
which contain expression bindings, we were generating i18n update op-codes
that did not accurately map to the correct value to be bound in the lView.
Each attribute's bindings were relative to the start of the lView first
attributes values rather than to their own.
This fix passes the current binding index to `generateBindingUpdateOpCodes()`
when processing i18n attributes to account for this.

When including a component in a template, the component's host element
is immediately appended as child of the parent node upon creation.
Hence, `hostElement.parentNode` will be a valid reference. However, if
the parent component is being inserted as an embedded view—through
`ngIf` for example—then the parent's node itself will not have been
inserted yet. This means that we cannot properly determine the position
of the transition namespace, as any `containsElement` check will return
false given that the partial DOM tree has not been inserted yet, even
though it will be contained within an existing transition namespace once
the partial tree is attached.
This commit fixes the issue by not just looking at the existence of a
parent node, but rather a more extensive check using the driver's
`containsElement` method.

Makes the following improvements to the listener instructions to make them slightly smaller and more memory-efficient.
1. Removes the default value from the `useCapture` parameter since it generates more code than just castint to `false`.
2. Removes the `useCapture` and `eventTargetResolver` parameters from `ɵɵsyntheticHostListener` since they won't be generated by the compiler, as far as I can tell.
3. Makes it so that we don't have to return a target name from a `GlobalTargetResolver`. This allows us to save on some memory, because we can return a reference to the target without having to wrap it in an object literal.
DEPRECATIONS:
`EventManagerPlugin.getGlobalEventTarget` is now deprecated and won't be called from Ivy code anymore. Global events will go through `addEventListener`.

Currently we save a reference to an `LView` on most DOM nodes created by Angular either by saving
the `LView` directly in the `__ngContext__` or by saving the `LContext` which has a reference to
the `LView`. This can be a problem if the DOM node is retained in memory, because the `LView` has
references to all of the child nodes of the view, as well as other internal data structures.
Previously we tried to resolve the issue by clearing the `__ngContext__` when a node is removed
(see https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/36011), but we decided not to proceeed, because it can
slow down destruction due to a megamorphic write.
These changes aim to address the issue while reducing the performance impact by assigning a unique
ID when an `LView` is created and adding it to `__ngContext__`. All active views are tracked in
a map where their unique ID is used as the key. We don't need to worry about leaks within that map,
because `LView`s are an internal data structure and we have complete control over when they are
created and destroyed.

This commit refactors the code to replace `loadLContext` with `getLContext` calls. The only difference between these two functions is that the `loadLContext` supports throwing an error in case `LContext` can not be found. The investigation performed in #41525 revealed that throwing while retrieving `LContext` might have undesirable performance implications, so we should avoid that to make sure there are no accidental perf regressions in other parts of code that used `loadLContext`. Moreover, in most of the places the `loadLContext` was already called in a mode that prevented an error from being thrown, so this refactoring should have no effect on the actual behavior.

We have a check that determines whether to generate property binding instructions for an `ng-template`.

These changes resolve the issue by looking at the tag name without the namespace.

When determining whether to run an animation, the `TransitionAnimationPlayer`
checks to see if a DOM element is attached to the document. This is done by
checking to see if the element is "contained" by the document body node.
Previously, if the element was inside a shadow DOM, the engine would
determine that the element was not attached, even if the shadow DOM's
host was attached to the document. This commit updates the `containsElement()`
method on `AnimationDriver` implementations to also include shadow DOM
elements as being contained if their shadow host element is contained.
Further, when using CSS keyframes to trigger animations, the styling
was always added to the `head` element of the document, even for
animations on elements within a shadow DOM. This meant that those
elements never receive those styles and the animation would not run.
This commit updates the insertion of these styles so that they are added,
to the element's "root node", which is the nearest shadow DOM host, or the
`head` of the document if the element is not in a shadow DOM.

Update the supported range of node versions for Angular. Angular now

BREAKING CHANGE: Angular no longer maintains support for node v10

This commit introduces the following optimizations:
1. We return an empty array for text nodes in `getDirectives` because
Angular does not support attaching logic to them. This optimization
improves performance of `getDirectives` significantly because text nodes
often result in expensive calls to `loadLContext` since we can't resolve
it from a parent node.
1. `getDirectives` now calls `loadLContext` with second argument `false`
so it doesn't throw an error. This brings another significant
improvement because prevents the VM from deoptimizing calls.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously the `ng.getDirectives` function threw an error in case a
given DOM node had no Angular context associated with it (for example
if a function was called for a DOM element outside of an Angular app).
This behavior was inconsistent with other debugging utilities under `ng`
namespace, which handled this situation without raising an exception.
Now calling the `ng.getDirectives` function for such DOM nodes would
result in an empty array returned from that function.
